| Which Processor Hi, I am looking to buy a new PC, I have a Gateway P3 866 at the moment and I have always had Intel processors, I am now looking at two Pc's with identical spec apart from the processor, one has the Intel® Pentium 4 3.4GHz HT and the other has the AMD Athlon 64 3400 Processor. Can anyone give me their opinion on which one should I go for. I use my PC for Internet, Quite intensive graphics apps, and photo and video editing. Many thanks Mel..      |

Why do you say Intel ? .. its true the Intel runs at a higher clock speed but AMD have a different approach and thats to get more done per clock cycle.. its down to personal choice but as far as I am concerned the AMD 64 would be far more beneficial to you for a start it is 64 bit so it is somewhat future proofed especially when you want to upgrade to the XP 64 bit operating system especially if you do GFX processing or whatever. you could simply ask to see a demonstration model for each computer and decide from that ... |
